BitLocker Drive Encryption is a very useful feature of Windows that can help you encrypt partitions to keep your data secure, it uses the AES-CBB 128/256, AES-XTS 128/256 encryption algorithm to encrypt all sectors of the partition, so it can absolutely guarantee the security of your data. In Windows we typically use the BitLocker manager, where we can encrypt partitions, decrypt partitions, export BitLocker recovery key and startup key (.BEK file), lock and unlock partitions, and change password for BitLocker-encrypted partitions. Unfortunately, we cannot find the Bitlokcer manager in the Windows 11/10/8/7 Home editions, nor can we use BitLocker to encrypt the partition, because Microsoft has made BitLocker as an enterprise feature and thus did not provide it in these editions of Windows.
